United thread 2012/13 (inc merged IPO thread)

[Viva Rivaldo]

Really don't understand the merits of having the whole "Where would United be if they didn't get Van Persie?" discussion every week.

We did.

You have also had a 10 point lead cut to 5 in the space of a week.

Quite right it's like if you didn't get fergie you'd be still 13 titles behind Liverpool ;)

They truly are as thick as pig shit.

Are you incapable of having actual real discussions with rival fans?

I think we've done rather well from our away games against the big sides this season. Won against you, Chelsea & Liverpool, and got a draw at Spurs. Not such a bad record.

Interestingly, what let us down today was our attack. Our defence held firm for 90 minutes, but we just weren't clever enough in attack.

Van Persie's header was quality but, aside from contributing the goal, he had a reasonably poor performance. Welbeck was quality again, but it was his composure that let him down again. Great to see Kagawa playing well, and in a more natural role of his. I knew instantly that it'd be he who Rooney was coming on for when I saw him warming up, but would have much rather it been RVP.

Shite refereeing, but Spurs deserved at least a point from that.

I am capable yes.

Firstly RVP is class and we have missed out by not getting him.

Carrick had a great game for me.

On the penalty, no chance. Watch it closely mate and you will see Rooney very clearly and cleverly kick the back of the defenders leg.

No point in crying over it, but if that was Aguero not Rooney, or had happened to Spurs, there'd be about five new "UNITED CONSPIRACY" threads up in this forum.

And this is shocking behaviour. Could have killed him.

The only contact is from Rooney kicking the lad in the calf.

Clear for all to see.

Would you say penalty had it been the other around and be honest please.

 

[Viva Rivaldo]

Of course not, but I'd have second thoughts about declaring a penalty if Vidic had buried his fist in Bale's simian face.

This is the thing. We're partisan.

Agreed on the snowball incident pmsl.
